Ta Dah! Foliage complete and the wee hoose is finished! Swipe to see a timelapse of me creating the leafy base. 💚🌿 . . #whimsicallush #RoxMural #woodcut #mural #handpainted #handcut #drawingchallenge #commission #portfolioclub #doodles #posca #dundee #timelapse

Just painting one of my wee houses. Not this time - this beaut is bigger than me! #RoxMural #progresspeek . . #whimsicallush #illustration #sneakpeek #mural #cutout #handmade #handcut #woodencutout #dundee #studiolife #illustratorsoninstagram

Embracing my inner Dennis as I crack on with some tree detail! #RoxMural . . #whimsicallush #illustration #mural #cutout #woodencutout #commission #dundee #birdseyeview #timelapse #studiolife #artistoninstagram #illo #artiststudio

‪Named after the beautiful Chalet la Floria that’s tucked away up in the mountains just outside Chamonix, old Floria the fox is as relaxed & calm as the chalet itself. Have you ever been? It’s an easy hike with beautiful food, flowers & views when you get there. Floria & pals are part of my @funadaydundee project & perfect for this week’s #colour_collective too with Iva’s amazing #yellow horns.‬ . . #illustration #whimsicallush #chamonix #frenchalps #alpineanimals #fox #ibex #wildboar #chaletlafloria #mountainanimals #fadd2020 #chalet #funaday #funadaydundee #dundee #kidlitart #doodles

Iva was soon joined outside the chalet at the edge of the forest by her pal Wilbur. Wilbur is named after my favourite pig in one of my favourite books as a kid, Charlotte’s Web. He’s actually a wild boar - a French mountain pig who often shares the alpine slopes with Ibex just like Iva. What was your favourite book when you were a child? . . This is another snippet from my @funadaydundee piece #fadd2020 💚🌿 . . #whimsicallush #illustration #alpineanimals #ibex #wildboar #kidlitart #illo #frenchalps #mountains #chamonix #animals #doodles #cute #dundee

Meet Iva the ibex. She strolled in to see what was happening in my @funadaydundee piece. Some of you may have already met her on Twitter. I’ll try and persuade her to stay shall I? I asked her to stop long enough for you to admire her wonderful horns in the 2nd pic before she skipped back off up the mountain! . . #FADD2020 #messingabout #dundee #frenchalps #mountains #illustration #procrastination #ibex #stopmotion #procreate #ipadpro #forest #woodland #mountain #mountainanimals #wildbeastie

Then there was green. Of course there had to be right? Shades of apple, teal and emerald - dreamy huh! 🤤🌿💚 #RoxMural . . Helping hand from @creature_emporium Thanks so much Blair! ☺️ . . #whimsicallush #woodcut #mural #dundee #birdseyeview #studiolife #green #cutout #commission

Night scene! We’ve turned the #RoxMural into shadows! Ha ha! The random chat going on with @creature_emporium and @1874works as I was filming btw - mute! 🤣 What tune would you put to this scene? . . All the backs are now painted black with wood preservative. Preserves the wood 👍 Stops any unwanted reflections from white or colour on back wall/ other panels 👍 I kinda love it. . . #whimsicallush #illustration #cutout #woodencutouts #mural #commission #installation #Dundee #teamworkmakesthedreamwork

For those of you who haven’t swung by the studio recently I thought you’d like a wee #RoxMural update. Behind the scenes and amid all the festive madness there has been much painting of wooden shapes! First of all - primer. We went from bare naked wood (ooo errr! 😂) to white for an even base coat that is weatherproof too! We want this bad boy to last... . . #whimsicallush #dundee #gobigorgohome #mural #illustration #woodencutouts #commission #artistoninstagram

The @funadaydundee fun continues... squished in some mountains and clouds - loads o detail and black and white vs/ with abstract pattern, colour and texture! . . #whimsicallush #FADD2020 #funaday #dundee #illustration #drawing #doodles #fun #alps #mountains #forest #woodland #chalet #abstract #pattern #texture #colourpop

Bit of inky forestry added to this year’s @funadaydundee piece... it’s starting to build up already. Played with a bit of colour in the trees too in the second pic. What one do you prefer? Think I like black and white. . . #whimsicallush #FADD2020 #funaday #dundee #funadaydundee #illustration #doodles #drawing #forest #woodland #chalet #FrenchAlps #chamonix #artistoninstagram #illo #portfolioclub

I’m joining in with @funadaydundee again this year. If you’ve seen my stories you will have spotted me drawing a log pile for this old chalet that can be found high up in the mountains at the base of Mont Blanc. It was built in 1783. The textures of the wood and all topsy turvy, slightly wonky, lines were so much fun to draw. . . Last year’s project was a 3D diorama of rainbow houses and dwellings in an old microscope box and was so colourful - this year I can’t decide whether to add colour or not yet! What do you think? Colour or no colour? . . #whimsicallush #illustration #fadd2020 #funadaydundee #funaday #dundee #artistoninstagram #blackandwhite #chalet #mountainchalet #frenchalps #alpine #montblanc #chamonix #woodenhouse

Happy New Decade you lovely people! Xx . . #abandonshipbar #whimsicallush #hogmanay #newyear #dundee

Wishing you a happy Hogmanay! Can’t believe it’s here already. Thank you so much for all your support, I honestly couldn’t do this without you. You guys are the best and I hope you are having a lovely night. What a year it’s been - a busy one to end the decade on. You’re possibly mega over seeing everyone’s year wrap ups - so if you are, sorry! . . It was so hard to choose what to include in my highlights but one boy kinda stole the show - Oor Wullie was back in town, your town and all over Scotland with his @owbigbuckettrail . What a privilege it was to be a part of some thing so huge, raising over a million pounds for all of Scotland’s children. . . I finally started bringing together my personal #SunnyDundee project that has been ticking away in the background since last year and it featured on a beer label too - Dundee Cake Ale by @lawbrewing.co . . @joannemacfadyen and I painted another @maggiespenguinparade penguin in @vadundee and I joined her a few months later with my all my goodies for her amazing @teagreenevents festive design market. I really enjoyed my first market at @dcadundee too. The markets this year have all been great and that’s thanks to all of you for coming along to support us all. . . Earlier in the year we were painting the streets with young people, Laura Cooney and her team from the Corner for the Reformation project. I bottled butterflies and budlea for a rare books exhibition with Archive Collections, @dundeeuni . I was delighted to create a range of corporate gifts for @abertayuni in their 25th year and had so much fun with @funadaydundee ! . . I’ve had to miss so much out but most of you have been on these adventures with me - I hope you’ve enjoyed the ride too!? Here’s to 2020 and a brand new decade! Sx

My terrific 10! 10 classic prints for just £1 each 🙀 -exclusive to #Etsy- . . 2019 has been about setting goals and taking all the steps to achieve them, be it exhibiting in V&A Dundee or designing my own fabric. At the beginning of 2019 I set the mighty goal of growing my online shop to the point where I had shipped 1000 orders across the globe by New Year’s Eve. With just 28 hours to go I’m sitting tantalisingly close with a total of 990 sales ❤️ . . To thank you for your kind support I’ve set aside 10 of my most wonderfully classic whimsical works and listed them exclusively for 1 day only at the price of 1 pound! First come first served! . . *shipping is free too as an extra wee thank you x . . #whimsicallush #illustration #artprint #rabbit #umbrella #toadstool #mushroom #owlandpussycat #inkcap #beehive #creatures #octopus #seahorse #sketch #tree #castle #dundee #scotland #freeshipping #goals

Wishing you a very squeaky Cheesemouse! 🧀🐭🎄A quick lil festive squeak for my sweet AJ. . . I took inspiration from a sweet wee card his little nephew Caleb gave us last year. ❤️ #drawthisinyourstyle So I’d like to invite you to do the same! I love to see you draw this cheese loving mouse in your own style. . . #whimsicallush #illustration #illo #mouse #cheese #cheesemouse #dundee #knittedjumper #kidlitart #artistsoninstagram #portfolioclub

Two sweet wee commissions for two very sweet people! . .

Have a wonderful Christmas everyone! 💚🎄I’ll be in the studio tomorrow from 12-2pm if anyone needs a wee last minute treat. I will have my new wrapping paper on the go so any WhimSicAL LusH goodies can be gift wrapped (for free) too if you fancy. ❤️💚🎄 . . Studio 6, Floor 1 Meadow Mill West Henderson’s Wynd Dundee, DD1 5BY . .

When cake becomes beer! Have you seen @lawbrewing.co’s latest creation? #DundeeCakeAle. It’s been a delight to work with Danny on this one. The label ties in with my #SunnyDundee range featuring some of Dundee’s iconic buildings. You can also spot the famous Dundee dragons and lilies, an intricate River Tay mandala and we paved the streets with the cake’s famous almonds and oranges. . . You can grab yourself a bottle before they vanish from @verdantdundee, @discoverydundee, @aitkenwines_1874, @frasersfruitandveg, The Speedwell Bar, @mcmanusdundee, @underdogdundee, @thewest_house and @thebutcherthebakerscotland. I’d best get in quick too! 😅☀️ . . Great wee feature in the @evening_telegraph in there too if you’d like a read.

🌿 Last postage alert! 🌿 The @ukpostoffice has suggested that in order for you to get your Etsy treats in time for next week’s big day I get them in the post by THIS Friday! So make sure and get ‘em in by Thursday night/ Friday morning. . . If all else fails (and you’re local to #Dundee) fear not - you can collect from my studio and @birdandbeardundee by arrangement right up until 24th December. 💚🌿 . . You can find my wee online #Etsy Shop right up there in my bio. . . #whimsicallush #illustration #lastpost #christmaspost #etsy #dundee #snowman #mandala #bandstand #blackandwhite #brotherandsister #siblings #artcalendar #2020calendar
